Yeah but all that means is we can make him an offer first, if he doesn't like it he can test the market, right??

He can, but the Giants would need to put tender on Cruz. If that were a # 1 draft pick, a lot of teams won't bite. But there are teams out there that might, it's a gamble. A team well under it's CAP that thinks it just needs a productive WR could snatch him up.

“Never argue with an idiot. They will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.” MB Rule # 1

lets just throw this situation out there; cruz signs elsewhere, but we gain a 1rst and a 3rd draft pick, and have more room in the cap to get a top notch RT or G/C...then how does everyone feel? from a completely economical stand point, seeing as we got a SB already, and got the production we did for around 1 mil both years (lmao how JR pulled that off is beyond me, talk about lucking out on an UDFA rookie). You sell him high, ie the 1rst and 3rd round pcks, then use one of those spots to address his loss. then u have an additional quality pick and the money u would have spent on him, can now be used on a FA...

its not an easy decision. im with the majority here in wanting him back. but the other scenario isnt exactly terrible.

In the scenario we lose Cruz and gain a 2013 1st and 3rd rounder, we would be wise to trade our selections for future 2014 draft picks so we can acquire Jadeveon Clowney. It would be the end of JPP double teams since Clowney will easily win 1v1s against most tackles in football today.
